SOME FACTS:

I work out of BV Studios, Bristol. I learnt my craft at Edinburgh College of Art. I like scotch eggs a bit too much. Guilty of a pun or two. I do not like milky tea. I have two small children/ bullies and am co-creator of comic Sam Jamwitch (it's about a witch made of jam who lives in a house of toast). I make sketchbook diaries and life based comic/ cartoons which I post on my blog.

What My clients say about me:

“Quick-thinking and quick-witted, I always enjoy commissioning Kate. She’s full of good ideas, but happy to listen to direction too. Kate continues to produce lively and eye-catching illustrations for Radio Times that jump off the page.”

Mark Taylor- Art Director Radio Times

“A highly professional individual and super-talented illustrator, Kate has produced many wonderful illustrations for several magazines that I commission for.

Wonderfully creative and possessing a unique style, Kate’s ability to interpret a brief for a wide variety of subjects makes initial concepts a joy to work from.

I always know I’m going to get something special when Kate is onboard.”

Yvey Bailey- Art Editor Redactive

“Kate’s illustrations gave the front section of BBC World Histories magazine its own distinct character. She provided striking, quirky and original illustrations for a wide range of topics, in a tight timeframe. We liked her flexibility, lightness of touch and thoughtful approach. It was a great pleasure working with her!”

Susanne Frank- Art Editor BBC History magazine

“The team looked at various illustrators, but one stood out. The work of Kate Hazell was ideal—her style is fun, and clear, almost doodle-like, a perfect fit for the writing.”

Mike Turner- Art Director Prospect magazine. They even wrote a blog about it: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/behind-the-scenes-a-new-lease-on-life
